The 1800 election for Governor of Vermont took place throughout September, and resulted in the re-election of Isaac Tichenor to a one-year term.[1]
The Vermont General Assembly met in Middlebury on October 9.[1] The Vermont House of Representatives appointed a committee to examine the votes of the freemen of Vermont for governor, lieutenant governor, treasurer, and members of the governor's council.[1]
The committee examined the votes, which showed that Isaac Tichenor was chosen for a fourth one-year term.[1] In the election for lieutenant governor, the voters selected Paul Brigham for a fifth one-year term.[1] No candidate for treasurer had a majority of the popular vote.[1] In accordance with the Vermont Constitution, the General Assembly was required to make a choice.[1] The Assembly met on October 10 and elected Benjamin Swan.[1] Vote totals for the governor's race were reported as follows.[1]
